The problem is understandable. The Second Vatican Council produced, by far, more document pages than any other council. Consequently, any attempt to master its core teachings can be daunting. There is a danger of missing the forest for the trees. With this in mind, \u003ci\u003eKeys to the Council\u003c\/i\u003e identifies twenty key conciliar passages, central texts that help us appreciate the Vision of the council fathers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach chapter places the given passage in its larger historical context, explores its fundamental meaning and significance, and finally considers its larger significance for the life of the church today. Chapters include exploration of \u003ci\u003eSacrosanctum Concilium's\u003c\/i\u003e demand for full, conscious, and active participation in the liturgy;\u003ci\u003e Lumen Gentium's\u003c\/i\u003e eucharistic ecclesiology; \u003ci\u003eGaudium et Spes's\u003c\/i\u003e vision of marriage as an intimate partnership of life and love; \u003ci\u003eNostra Aetate's\u003c\/i\u003e approach to non-Christian religions; and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard R.
